If it's a fine day I'd say we could get 70K.

55k

How are the bodies in Mhi ?

Put a few bob on Meath 6/1 and a wee bit on a draw at 14/1. If either of those land safely I'll be happy enough as a gambler and a meath fan.


The winning of this game is really how we time our peak moments during the game. When we go forward and really attack them, and when to pull men back. I think we retreated too much against Kildare and surrendered midfield almost to our detriment. So keeping some pressure further out the field will be important in handling a Dublin insurgency. My feeling is that it may come earlier in the game rather than in the second half as been the usual so far. Dublin might like to kill off the game as early as possible.
It won't be the next manager but the one after that Meath will become competitive again - MO'D 2016

Had to laugh at this headline in the times today

"Kevin Reilly respects Dublin but doesn't fear them"


Meath in not fearing Dubs shocker

That's the thing, but we have to do it in a way that frustrates them instead of just inviting them onto us and pins us back in our own half.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

Seamus Kenny frustated D Connolly no end last year in fairness too him ................... I hope Gavin launches OGara from the start at Reilly, because Reilly will be licking his lips at having a go at Mannion and Costello if they start, OGara should keep him occupied

O'Gara started on Reilly last year and was subbed.
I'd far rather Reilly had a big man to mark than some agile, nippy lad.

Just the one change announced.
Mickey Newman in for Dalton McDonagh.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

Syferus

Jackeens, give them a right hammering this time. Make them nice and doughy soft for us in Round 4.

Rossfan

Syfín - could you please take a vow of silence for one effin day. >:( :-[
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

It would be great if Meath could beat the Dubs . It would really shake up the fuball this year.
Roscommon could apply the coup de grace in the Jekyll afterwards (assuming they beat Armagh).

How much are tickets for tours of the Roscommon bus?

One thing's for sure, we don't fear the Dubs.
